Birds, with the exception of owls '"eipuy jo sjoared SuiBuey eyy pum sleep with their heads turned tail- ward, over their back, and the beak thrust among the feathers between the wing and body. Storks, gulls, and other long- legged birds, sleep standing on one leg. 4 Ducks sleep. on open water. To avoid drifting shoreward they keep paddling with one foot, thus mak- ing them move in a circle. * Sloths sleep hanging by their four feet, the head tucked in be- tween their fore legs. Foxes and wolves sleep curled up, their noses and the soles of their feet close together and blanketed by their bushy tails. Hares, snakes and fish sleep with their eyes wide open. Owls, in addition to their eye- lids, have a screen that they drew sideways across their eyes to shut daytime.

The story is told of a famous lady, who once reigned in Paris society, that she was so very homely that her mother said one day. 'My poor child, you are too ugly for any one ever to fall in love with you." From that time Madame de Cin- court began to be very kind to the pauper children of the village, the servants of the household, even the birds that hopped about the garden walks. . She was always distressed if she happened to be unable to render a service. This good-will toward everybody made her the idol of the city. Though her complexion was sallow, her grey eyes small and sunken; yet she held in devotion to her the greatest men of her time. Her unselfish interest in others made her, it is said, perfectly irre- sistible, Her-life surely furnishes a valuable lesson. --_---- > Terrible Sealding Acclden ZAMBUK GAVE 'QUICK RELIEF.

The number of suicides, especially among young women, has been in- creasing to such an extent recently in Naples, Italy, that the doctors cide. ~ Five attempted suicides by poisoning, all of young women, the youngest being a girl of 18, were reported in one day. The police as- certained that in the case of two women the motive was disappoint- ment in love, in two others the re- proaches of parents, and in the fifth ability to write a love letter. 5, Rheumatism Goes Quickly Its Virus Forever Destroyed EVERY CASE 18 CURABLE. Good-bye to Rheumatism! Your aching joints, your stiff, sore muscles, those sleepless nights and suffering days--good-bye forever-- your day is gone. Sufferer, cheer up, and read the good news below. "A man met me a month ago, and said, 'don't stay crippled, quit com- plaining, limber up.' My answer was, I'm rheumatic, can't do it' He looked me over in a pitying sort of way and told me to go to the nearest drug store for Nerviline and Ferro- zone. The combination had cured him. I was convinced of his sincerity and followed his instructions. I rub- bed on Nerviline three times every day--rubbed it right into my Sehing joints. The pain quickly lessened. an became more limber and active. To draw the virus of -the disease from my blood I took two Ferrozone Tab- lets with every meal. I am well to- day, not an ache, not a pain and no sign of stiffness at-all." What Nerviline can do in a case like this it can do for you too. For nearly forty years Nerviline has been recommended for Rheumatism, Lum- bago and Sciatica and Lame Back. appoints. -- th Our Picturesque Language.
